12/02/2022 - Baseball Factory Academic All-American Tournament CJ is a talented C in the 2025 class. Scouts feel he is a hard working and coachable player who plays with energy. Behind the plate, he has quick feet and a fast arm (81 velo/2.21 pop). He can redirect the baseball quickly and his slot is over the top. Working to stay in his legs on his throws will help decrease his pop and accuracy. At the plate, he begins in a squared stance and uses a short stride to gain his launch position. Stays inside his feet well and has fast hands (82 exit velo). Shows power to his pull side. Performed well in his game at bats (3 1B’s, 1 BB, 1 HBP in 7 appearances). Overall, there is a lot to like about his game and scouts are eager to see his improvements at future events.
